I teach sixth form maths students so most of my resources are aimed at A level maths. I have recently updated my resources to cover the new A level maths syllabus and I have produced PowerPoints that fully cover all of the new A level maths course. I also use a large a large amount of Notebook presentations because they are more flexible that PowerPoint. I have put a free resource on for you to try to show how the presentations work you can open it online using SMART Notebook Express website.

Presentation and activity showing learners how the CLT works and how it can be used to produce confidence intervals. The initial activity demonstrates how plotting the students samples produces a normal distribution.
Instructions,
1. Students collect samples of a given size
2. Teacher uses powerpoint to plot students results and discusses results
3. Repeat with bigger sample to show how the results cluster round the mean.
SMART Notebook Express presentations can be used for free by using SMART online or by downloading SMART software, also free, I use it because it allows a more interactive presentation than a powerpoint. Just search 'SMART Notebook Express' and try it with my free SMART resource.
